Hey Guys - My shipment of Anoraks just arrived, and there was a surprise inside...Teresa sent me a zippered jacket made from her LIGHTWEIGHT Evening Stand Brown.
It's awesome. She still has the Extra Heavy Weight ESB and ESG, but she designed this for us Northern boys in the early season, as well as you Southern bowhunters who need a lighter garment.
I wore it around the house a bit last night, and it has the feel of a light, soft sweater. The nap is almost "fluffy", and it reminds me of Alpaca wool (from what I remember...Alpaca wool is waaaay too expensive for me).
I'm not selling these on my site, this is a "Teresa Exclusive" :bigsmyl:
Thank you Teresa for the wonderful gift, I will be using it early in October for sure....and thank you for continuing to produce awesome wool garments at "regular guy" prices!!
Dang! Part of me wishes she would just stop with all the new patterns and weights, I'm out of money!!! ;)
Todd....this weight is something we have never seen before. I am thoroughly impressed....I can see this as an early season staple.
Sounds perfect for those 50 degree days in early October and in that ESB pattern to boot! That's the pattern I wore when I arrowed that buck from the ground over in Salem Twp in 2012. Looked right at me and went right back to nibblin
Dude light weight ESB?!?!? I will be putting my light weight Cedar Swamp plaid up for sale.
I don't see it on their web site, how do I get one? I will be hunting Arkansas opening weekend, and it is sure to be too warm for heavy or medium weight. Light weight may be perfect. Thanks.
Lightweight wool has been hard for me to find, glad to hear it.
Sharp Stick- just click on the GFA link on the upper left hand side of this page. It's takes you to the wool. The zip up is about half way down the page. It's in the center with "NEW" in the lower right in its caption.
I'm really looking forward to getting my light/medium weight in ESG. It should suit my bow hunting perfectly. Although, it's hard to think about wool when it's 100 degrees out like it is now. Come on fall!!!!!
Thanks shag08!
My heavy weight morning mist zip up should be here any day, I had the hood made a little smaller.
Got mine today. VERY nice jacket. I normally wear a small or medium in shirts. I ordered a medium zip up, light/medium weight ESG. Perfect fit for early season! I'm pretty sure I can throw a couple insulating garmets on under it and I could be comfy in January here in TN.
If anybody is thinking about this wool but on the fence...do yourself a favor and just order it. You will not be disappointed.
